types of circuits

Question 1

Ammeter

Answer 1

Device used to measure current in a circuit, and it must be placed in SERIES in all circuits

Question 2

Voltmeter

Answer 2

Device used to measure voltage and it must be placed PARALLEL in all circuits

Question 3

Multimeter

Answer 3

Device used to measure voltage, current, and resistance

Question 4

Series circuit

Answer 4

Each device is connected to one pathway which charges travels around in the circuit

Question 5

Voltage in series circuit

Answer 5

Also known as potential difference (total voltage), the total voltage is equal to the sum of voltages across the resistors

Question 6

Current in series circuit

Answer 6

It is constant at all points

Question 7

Resistance in series circuit

Answer 7

The total resistance is equal to the sum of all resistors in the circuit

Question 8

Resistance and Ampere are

Answer 8

inversely proportional

Question 9

Electric current remains the same when the resistor…

Answer 9

increases

Question 11

Parallel circuit

Answer 11

Devices are connected to multiple pathways which charge travel in its specific circuit

Question 12

Voltage in parallel circuit

Answer 12

Total voltage stays constant at all points

Question 13

Current in parallel circuit

Answer 13

It is equal to the sum of the current that passes through each resistor

Question 14

Resistance in parallel circuit

Answer 14

You can’t add them up like in series circuit so you use the equation
